One Piece: The Rise of the Murloc

As Li Xiang finished speaking. .

The ice dragon summoned by Hyōrinmaru opened its mouth big enough to swallow a person, and spit out a long dragon's breath.

call! ! !

Visible to the naked eye, dreamlike blue ice dots quickly spread across the ocean, covering Tiger's entire body in just an instant.

In a whistling sound, the dragon's breath with extremely cold air passed over Tiger's body.

Suddenly, the whole world seemed to stand still for a moment.

click! ! !

The sound of freezing sounded.

Amidst the crisp sound, countless blue ice points condensed, freezing Tiger's figure and the surrounding seawater under everyone's gaze.

Tiger, turned into an ice sculpture!

Everyone could even clearly see the expression on Tiger's face.

Surprised, helpless, terrified!

Wow! ! !

Seeing this scene, there was an uproar among the onlookers!

"Boss Tiger, you actually lost!"

"Oh my god, who can tell me this isn't true?"

"Boss Tiger defeated our entire Fishman Street by himself back then. He actually lost like this. It's so unreal!"

"Nonsense, don't even look at it. Boss Li Xiang summoned a dragon!"

"Yes, that's a dragon! Boss Tiger deserved to lose!"

"No matter how noisy it is, it's annoying to death. We salty fishes just stay aside quietly and shout to Li Xianglao, come on!"

"That's right!"

"Boss Li Xiang is mighty!"

"You sycophants only know how to shine Boss Li Xiang's shoes...Don't stop any of you! Boss Li Xiang, you are so handsome. I will be a fish-woman to marry you in the next life!"

"Brothers, shut him up together!"

……

Compared to Li Xiang, a rising star, Tiger has been famous for a long time and is almost invincible in the minds of all the fishmen in Fishman Street.

Originally, even the fishmen, including Jinbei, thought that this duel would end in a draw, but they did not expect that Li Xiang's hidden trump card was so strong that Tiger had no time to react and was defeated. Frozen into an ice sculpture!

call out!

A figure jumped out from the crowd, flew across the ground, passed through the ice spikes all the way, and came to Tiger's side.

It was Jinbe who looked anxious.

"Brother Tiger, are you okay?"

Jinbei shouted anxiously, while turning his left and right hands, waves of sea currents followed his hands, constantly washing Tiger's body, intending to use this laborious method to thaw.

Seeing this, Li Xiang gave up and stepped forward.

"Don't worry, he's fine."

With that said, Li Xiang put Hyōrinmaru on Tiger's shoulders.

The next moment, in Jinbei's surprised eyes, the ice sculpture exuding extremely cold air, even he felt goosebumps falling all over the place when he was so close. It was like being exposed to the warm sunshine of early spring, and it was moving at a speed visible to the naked eye. Melt it down.

"Brother, thanks!"

Although he was unhappy with Li Xiang's harsh attack on Tiger, Jinbei still sincerely thanked him.

"Ahhh!!!"

Tiger, who had just escaped from the ice, still had some ice chips on his skin, which kept consuming the heat in his body. Even though he was very physically fit, he couldn't help but tremble and sneeze.

Seeing this, Jinbei took off his clothes without thinking, covered Tiger, and asked with concern:

"Brother Tiger, is this a little warmer?"

"Ok!"

Tiger tightened the clothes he was wearing. He felt like he was in the extremely cold place of the North Sea. He was shivering with cold and his teeth were chattering. He couldn't speak at all, so he had to respond with a nasal voice.

Li Xiang narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Tiger who was weak and shivering, and then at Jinbei who looked concerned, with a subtle expression on his face.

Good friends for life!

Li Xiang felt like laughing!

……

at the same time.

Chambord Islands.

Today is another beautiful and sunny day. From time to time, seagulls fly across the calm sea, holding a live fish in their mouths.

For Moonlight Moria, today is also a good day, because after this period of time, his pirate ship was finally successfully coated and was able to launch to the mysterious Mermaid Island.

The dark hull, with an ominous aura, was like a sharp arrow speeding across the sea, breaking through the white waves, and moving away from the Chambord Islands at an extremely fast speed.

Moria's tall body like a giant stood on the bow of the ship like a dark iron tower, facing the sea breeze, with a light called ambition bursting in his eyes.

"Kaido, here I come!"

"are you ready?"

Just when Moriah was immersed in the fantasy of stepping on Kaido and punching Big Mom, a fish-like figure was already close to the bottom of the boat.

Whoops! Whoops! Whoops! ! !

Vanderdeken clasped one hand on the bottom of the boat, breathing heavily, and kept wiping the sweat from his forehead with one hand.

"Hey, I'm so exhausted. My waist is almost broken."

"I will never do such tiring work next time,"

After a moment of rest, Vanderdeken took off his gloves and pressed them against the hull of the ship.

"Li Xiang, Li Xiang, let you feel my uncle's anger!"

In the last sneak attack, Vander Deken had already left the mark of the target fruit on Li Xiang, and this time, he was going to throw the pirate ship, together with the pirates on it, at Li Xiang remotely!

puff! ! !

A thick mist of blood spurted out from Vanderdeken's mouth.

In the blink of an eye, his complexion turned pale, and his face looked much older.

For Vanderdeken, it is far beyond the capacity to use the fruit's ability to project such a huge ship with hundreds of people on it.

but! !! !!

The flames of revenge are burning in his eyes!

"Throw it out!!!!!!!!!"

Accompanied by a heart-rending roar, the pirate ship shook violently.

Giggle! Giggle! ! !

The hull began to tilt violently, and Moria, who was standing on the bow of the ship, almost lost his footing and fell to the ground.

And this is just the beginning.

"what's going on!"

The shadow under Moriah's feet twisted for a while, and the old tree held his feet tightly like entwined roots, preventing him from falling on the bumpy hull.

No one answered.

Because the other crew members were all knocked over by the sudden violent tremor, there was a chaos on the deck.

however.

What happened next made Moria feel an inexplicable malice.

The rudder began to lose control and rotate rapidly. No matter how hard the navigator tried to save it, the entire pirate ship was diving into the deep sea under an irresistible force, heading towards an unknown goal.

"So, what the hell is going on here?"

Moriah was confused!
